Casa Vasari

Fascinating look at how a late Renaissance artist and architect designed for himself rather than clients like the Medici and the Pope. Interesting short intro film in Italian with English subtitles. Go slow and read the signs in each room to understand function and the symbolism of the artwork. Also visit the quiet garden and fish in the fountain in the back.

Que bella, questa casa! Beautiful house of multitalent Giorgio Vasari, artist, architect, author! A miracle that these frescoes on ceilings and paintings - from the Renaissance ! - remained intact. Impressive, admission price of 4 Euros I found very fair. Be sure to check availability (and ideally reserve) as only few people are allowed in at one time. The presentation of information could be better, a bit more modern. But: great museum!

House Vasari in Arezzo is a great spot for anyone who loves art and history. It was the home of Giorgio Vasari, a key figure in the Renaissance who was a painter, architect, and writer. Inside, you can see rooms decorated with his beautiful frescoes, giving a sense of 16th-century style. Highlights include Vasari's studio, the Hall of Fame with portraits of famous people, and a large collection of his drawings and sketches. Visiting the house gives you a close-up look at Vasari's life and work, making it a must-see in Arezzo.

Very nice museum. It’s small, You need about 30-40 min for it. The wall painting are gorgeous. Would recommend to watch the short intro movie.

An amazing collection of art. The house was fascinating in and of itself, as was the story laid out as you went along. For a man and family to collect and maintain such wonderful pieces is amazing. Very fair admission for the tour.

The Arezzo home of the 16th Century artist/art historian Vasari. Approx 5 decorated rooms and a terrace garden. At July 23 entrance was €5. Interesting in itself but more so if you have in interest in high renaissance art. Would take somewhere between 30 mins and an hour to go round.

Really nice exhibition, thanks a lot to Giovanni for the great idea to visit the Bruschi house as well :)

The historical house of the artist and art historian Giorgio Vasari. Very small but beautiful rooms with frescoes in the ceiling, especially notable the one with with the arts depicted (music, sculpture, painting and architecture) and the main one with the fireplace. In the latter there is a central depiction of the allegory of virtue, fortune and envy (virtù, fortuna e invidia). Depending from which side of the room you are looking the painting a different one of the three seems victorious! On the walls fire (on the fireplace side) with a city in flame and abundace on the opposite (with a city flooded).
